“PhD by Publication: Where Your Research Legacy Becomes a Doctoral Distinction”

About PHD by Publication

Publication doctorates are awarded to working professionals in recognition of an existing body of work, rather

than at the end of a completely new research project. This route to a doctorate is also known as the PhD by portfolio or PhD by published works/published papers. It differs greatly from the conventional PhD by thesis. Rules apply to the type, the number, how recently the work has been published and how/whether they are linked. The number of publications required can vary depending on the length of the work, for example, if the pieces of research included are shorter forms of work, more items will be required to create a portfolio at doctoral level and length.

A Doctor of Philosophy by Publication (also known as a Ph.D. by Published Work or Ph.D. under Special Regulation) is a manner of awarding a Ph.D. degree offered in which a series of articles are published in scholarly, peer reviewed journals, books etc. to meet the requirements for the degree, in lieu of presentation of a final dissertation.

These publications generally should not have been used in another research degree and can include Academic Papers, Book Chapters, Monographs, Books & Media Presentations.
